Some students may have additional information that is required for UVU to collect before we can offer you any federal aid.
How to view your financial aid requirements
Awarding Federal Student Aid will not begin until late Spring. For example, if you completed your 2021-2022 FAFSA to receive aid beginning Fall 2021, you will typically see your financial aid offer in April 2021. View and accept your awards in myUVU.
Your financial aid will automatically apply toward your tuition and fees beginning the first day of classes as long as all outstanding requirements are resolved. Financial aid disburses on to student account balances every business day once the semester begins.
Once your student account is paid, any excess aid will be refunded to you by one of the following methods:
Student refunds are generally processed every business day once the semester begins.

FAFSA Verification
The U.S. Department of Education has a process to verify financial information to ensure accurate data is being reported on the FAFSA. If you are selected, it is required that you complete the process. If you do not complete Verification, you will not receive federal aid.
Submit completed verification documents no later than:
Fall only students: November 15
Fall and Spring, or Spring only students: April 1
Fall, Spring, and Summer, or Summer only students: July 15
To view your required tasks to complete your financial aid file, create an account and log in to Student Forms.
There are web forms that must be completed within the student forms portal, and other documents are uploaded by using the Upload button listed under each task.
The Verification web form is signed electronically using your myUVU password.
If you were selected for Verification after being previously awarded, your financial aid award will be updated, if applicable. This usually occurs within 2 weeks of submitting all documents. If a change in your financial aid award occurs, you will be notified via email.
If you were selected for Verification and have questions about how to complete the form(s), please view one of the following videos.

Financial Aid and Electing Credit/No Credit
Electing Credit (CR)/No Credit (NC) may have negative consequences for Financial Aid received for the current term and eligibility for future semesters. However, it will depend on a student's specific situation.
If a student has a currently awarded university scholarship, electing Credit/No Credit may impact continued eligibility. Please check the terms and conditions for the specific award in
For Federal Financial Aid purposes, Credit for a course will be considered attempted and completed successfully. However, it will not improve your overall GPA for Satisfactory Academic Progress. If a student takes Credit for a course and retakes it for a letter grade in a subsequent semester, it may make the course ineligible for aid.
For Federal Financial Aid purposes, No Credit for a course is considered attempted but not completed successfully. A No Credit grade may cause a student to fall below the minimum standards required for Financial Aid and cause the student to be ineligible for future Federal Financial Aid. Please review the Satisfactory Academic Progress policy.
No Credit courses will be treated the same as an Unofficial Withdraw (UW). If the institution is not able to document that a student began enrollment in the course and/or earned all of the aid that was received for the course, the student may be required to pay the funds back to UVU.
